From the kitchen to the bar, everything we serve is defined by a passion for exploring unique flavor combinations. Wood is more than a name: our wood-fired oven is at the heart of it all, enhancing a dynamic menu of small-plate, American fare, made with the peak midwest farm produce each season has to offer. Though the dishes regularly change, they are defined by a few constants: meat is butchered in-house from humanely-raised animals; vegetables are drawn from local family farms; and all pastas and sausages are freshly made. Lead by our talented Executive Chef Devin Kreller, who is a 6-time Michelin Bib Gourmand winner, Chef Devin uses French-dominated cooking techniques combined with multicultural inspirations such as Asian and Italian to create new dishes. Located in the heart of Chicago Boystown, we're known for our brunches, and house butchered meats. Come see why our restaurant has been around for 12 years. For reservations over 10 guests, please call us at (773) 935-9663.

    Excellent Neapolitan Pizza and you'll be wowed by the personable service. The manager went out of his way to accommodate the seating we requested, and our server Angie (with real-deal roots in Naples) was an absolute delight. Cozy spot. Dim lighting. Great place to reconnect with a friend or friends, and probably a good date spot as well. Truly enjoyed the award-winning pizza. Also - authentic pizza sauce with No Onion or Garlic! Bravo!!!!! Only drawback - Sports on the TV above the bar detracted from the ambience. Too bright. There's enough good vibe here without it. Overall Highly Recommended!

    Our first visit and we really enjoyed it. The food was delicious, and the service was wonderful. I had the mushroom risotto and my husband had the angel hair pasta with claims and octopus; both were outstanding.

    This was our first time dining here and safe to say all of the food was incredible and service was relatively quick and effortless even on a busy Valentine’s Day/Friday night. Steak tartare was delicious and the lamb shoulder and Wood’s KFC dishes were to die for. We will absolutely be back.

    Food was good overall! We enjoyed the our burrata appetizer and the pasta was FRESH! So tasty! My friend’s food was lukewarm though which is why I scored lower on food. The ambience was not as described, the music was very club vibes, no R&B or Italian vibes.
